In what can only be called strange or awesome, a Chinese developer that now makes MP3 players has ported FF7 to the NES. It is more or less the entire PSX game redone on the old Nintendo. It even includes the materia system.

Note that many of the graphics and sound are edits of FF3 on the NES even though the game itself is actually a new creation, not a hack.

Ealier today two tools (Wiiso and WiiED) were released in a package called wiitools, along with a key.bin file containing the decryption key to decrypt wii isos.

I tested these tools on some wii isos I had handy and it worked beatifully. My current project is to see if the Mario Galaxy check can be bypassed, but of course that would require the ability to reencrypt, which is currently not possible.

Download: WiiTools v0.1

My current progress and some early conclusions can be found here.

    Mario Galaxy contains a new check to stop backups from running. This update to the firmware on the Cyclowiz Wii modchip for both PAL and NTSC Wii's allegedly fixes the problem, though it may break other things as it is a beta. More as this develops...

    Confirmed on the official website here.

    The Xbox 360 version of the Phantasy Star Universe expansion Ambition of the Illuminus will not contain the single player story mode. There is no word on whether or not the content will be released later for Xbox 360, but for now, grab the PS2 or PC versions instead.

    This is a huge shame as some of us were eagerly waiting for it.

    The Pirate Bay is currently working on an OiNK replacement in an attempt to bring the hundreds of thousands of music albums back online that disappeared during the raid. The replacement will be released within a week and on the BOiNK.cd domain.

    BOiNK will be a little different from OiNK. For instance, the tracker will be public and it will start out with a lot less torrents than OiNK had when it was raided. The success of BOiNK will mainly depend on the former OiNK community, who will be asked to upload their old OiNK torrents.

    The most important thing about BOiNK is perhaps the message it sends out to the IFPI and the BPI: It shows that that if you stop one tracker, others will pop up days after. It is a hydra. Call it a slap in the face if you want.
